More From Larry Hagman
- "When we started the show, ‘Dallas’ was known as the city where JFK was assassinated. By the end it was known as JR’s home town."
- "‘Dallas’ hit a chord back in the late Seventies and Eighties because it was the age of greed: here you have this unapologetic character who is mean and nasty and ruthless and does it all with an evil grin. I think people related to JR back then because we all have someone we know exactly like him. Everyone in the world knows a JR."
- "I was born with success. Lucky for me I am able to handle it. Also, I damn well deserve it!"
